Benny Mardones “Into The Night” V3

Benny Mardones 1980s classic “Into the Night” has been re-engineered for the dance floor with a wicked mix from Dirty Werk and is poised to enter the charts for the third time.

“Into the Night” is one of only 10 recordings to ascend to the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart twice. The two versions charted in 1980 and 1989 and put Mardones into a unique club with the likes of Chubby Checker, Ben E. King, the Righteous Brothers and Queen, all of whom charted the same song a number of years apart.

“Into the Night” was released on June 1980 and peaked at No. 11 on the Hot 100 in September of that year and was on the chart for 20 weeks.

In 1989, Scott Shannon re-added the song to his playlist, resulting in the song going back onto the national charts in May. That time it peaked at No. 20 and added 17 more weeks in the chart for a total of 37.

Benny Mardones latest release on Silverblue / Dauman is about to make musical history as a hit record of the same song, by the same artist, on different labels, in 3 different decades.

Currently Benny is suffering from Parkinson’s disease but is determined to recover soon to go out and support his third and final version of “INTO THE NIGHT” – V3, with a re-mix by world renown Dirty Werk, who has had 10 #1Billboard hits on the Dance Charts, including 4 #1’s with Ariana Grande.
